Huge promotional benefits in OSS Cadre
Recently 144 OSS Officers (22 DS + 122 DO) got promotion to higher ranks.
These officers were recruited during 1982-83 & 1983-84 and there was hardly any scope for promotion, so restructuring of OSS Cadre was taken up and amendment of Cadre Rule was done.
Additional Chief Secretary Home and Development Commissioner, Asit Kumar Tripathy, who was instrumental in restructuring the OSS cadre to improve effectiveness among the officers, took steps to relax old age stipulations on promotional aspects.The ‘Residency Period’ was relaxed in all the posts so as to favor speedy promotions.
Mr.Tripathy has been generous in providing promotions to the officers and during last six months 289 Officers have been promoted.

More than 100 Under Secretaries are waiting to be promoted to the rank of Deputy Secretary very soon.
So we can say that OSS Officers are getting huge promotional benefits this year. But it's obvious, present ASOs have to struggle for next promotion.

Expectations from 500 ASOs yet to join
On 29th June, 22 Deputy Secretaries and 122 Desk Officers have been promoted to the rank of Joint Secretary and Under Secretary respectively. Also nearly more than 100 Under Secretaries will get their promotion to Deputy Secretary very soon. In a very short period, Secretariat will have another 500 ASOs in OSS Cadre. So we can see a major reshuffle of staff in each department (last time major reshuffling was due to 10 years transfer) although some may show their interest to continue in their present Department after promotion. But many sections must be reconstituted with new staff i.e ASO to Joint Secretary.
If we think about a particular section, its being being managed by ASO, SO & DO. Now DOs will be transferred and new ASOs to join. So main responsibility is on present ASOs (2012-13 & Spl. Drive Batch) and SOs.
Secondly, when thinking about new ASOs, Secretariat will experience a young mass (within age group of 22-28) of ASOs coming from diverse qualification and job experience. Many of them will come after resigning their present job and some are preparing for OCS Examinations and other higher salaried jobs. It is also sure that they will come with much interest to know more about secretariat and its working culture. Because everything is upto their job satisfaction.

As we know each file starts from a ASO, so the newly recruited 500 will play a major role for the section management in a better way. And this may lead to implementation of 5-T concept of Hon'ble CM.
So we can hope for a better coordination between existing ASOs and new ASOs yet to join.
